2006-01-09 thru 01-23 Colbert's Fish Camp 25

Colbert Sturgeon's Fish Camp. "Urban Foraging", a.k.a. dumpster diving. We stopped behind a local grocery store to see what was there. We were shocked to see lots of food that was still edible. Bags of salad greens, a broken ten pound bag of potatoes, turnips with greens, collard greens, tomatoes, eggplants, about 10 dozen eggs with a few broken in each container, lots of stuff. We took a couple of boxes into the truck. It's hard to believe that people are going hungry in this country when so much food is wasted! But we weren't done yet. Our next stop it to collect some lumber from packing crates. The owner was glad to see Colbert, this saved him from paying his guys to break down the crates and dispose of the wood. Colbert collects this wood and other found materials for his different building projects (recycling).
